Cristen,

A quick and dirty translation, just for you.

Literally, girl child, but used affectionately as a form of address.

I'm deep, but only because I know how incredible you are and how much more it could be if I just could get to know you a little better... you're amazing, and beautiful, and I wouldn't want you to change a hair on your head.

"kyk mooi na jouself en ek mis jou , en wens ek was nou by jou"

Take good care of yourself and I miss you and wish I was with you right now.

Yeah, I thought either that, or he's deeply in love (although that's a bit of an anglisisme, ne?) or it could be a typo.

I always had a soft spot for the little Afrikaner seuntjies because of their soft mushy side. The English one are all about beer and surfing and tuning you kak all the time. But then I settled for a nice soft mushy American

i agree...american guys SUCK. they are all the same, boring and dumb...south africans on the other hand seem to be much more thoughtful and cute haha, thanks for the help!
